About PRNPX

PIMCO Real Return Fund I-3 is a mutual fund designed to provide investors with a real rate of return by investing primarily in inflation-protected fixed income securities. The fund seeks to maximize real return while emphasizing the preservation of real capital and prudent risk management. Its strategy entails investing at least 80% of total assets in a diversified portfolio of inflation-indexed bonds, including U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS), as well as similar securities issued by non-U.S. governments, agencies, and corporations. By focusing on inflation-linked bonds of varying maturities, the fund aims to mitigate the risk of eroding purchasing power due to rising consumer prices. Notable features of the PIMCO Real Return Fund I-3 include exposure to both domestic and international inflation-protected securities, the potential to invest in high yield and foreign currency-denominated assets within specified limits, and a monthly dividend payout structure. The fund plays a strategic role in diversified portfolios, offering a hedge against inflation and contributing to stability when traditional stocks or nominal bonds may underperform in inflationary environments. With its above-average performance rating and focus on inflation risk mitigation, the fund is widely regarded as a core holding for investors prioritizing real return and capital preservation.
